I had a great experience at Kaya’s Island Restaurant. The Bang Bang Fish was my favorite, crispy and full of flavor. The Jamaican jerk wings with goat cheese were absolute heaven with the perfect balance of spice and creaminess. My entrée was the macadamia coconut catch with tuna. It was cooked well but a little bland for my taste. I also had the white wine island sangria, which was refreshing and paired nicely with the food. I’m giving 4 stars because the appetizers and entrées came out at the same time. I would have preferred to enjoy them separately, but overall I’d definitely go back.

Great restaurant. Food was very very tasty. My husband and I started walking around /near Duval Street, found this place first but keep walking another 40 minutes and decided to come back to Kaya Island Eats because the menu looked like items we would like plus the prices were more in our budget. I had Yingling beer on tap for $7 which was very good. The shrimp taco’s were top notch and my husband really enjoyed his “beach burger”. And to top it all off, even though we were stuffed, we had the key lime pie and we were soooo glad we did. It was the best key lime pie we have ever had! Seriously. And the service was fast and friendly.

We stopped in for lunch during our Key West port day. My husband and I both loved our drinks — he had a beer and I ordered a mai tai that came in the cutest tiki glass. We were even given free Mai tai samples which immediately sold me, it was so good! We shared the conch fritters for an appetizer and then had the fish tacos for our meals. Everything was absolutely delicious. Rodney was a fantastic server and made the whole experience even better. If we’re ever back in Key West, we will definitely be returning!
